Join us for a 4th of July celebration Wednesday evening from 7:30-8:30! We have a fantastic line-up of patriotic favorites in addition to our Young Artist Competition winner Gus Brown on marimba and we will close out the concert with a children’s parade around the park to The Stars and Stripes Forever! Gather your family and friends, a lawn chair and a picnic. Perfect for those who may not want to fight the fireworks crowd, or those who would like to enjoy some great music before heading to a fireworks show. Hope to see you there!
